Antiparasitic activity of Colombian Amazon palm extracts against
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Colombian plants have a long history of use in traditional medicine and ethnopharmacology, particularly for treating stomach pain, digestive issues, diarrhea, and other gastrointestinal disorders. Recent studies have renewed interest in their potential therapeutic properties. Methods: This study evaluated the giardicidal activity of 15 crude plant extracts native to the Colombian Amazon against Giardia lamblia (genotype A, strain WB/1267). The MTT colorimetric assay was used to determine the effectiveness of these extracts at a concentration of 500 μg/mL. Extracts showing significant activity were further analyzed to determine their half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50). The cell death mechanisms of Attalea butyracea were studied using flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Results: Among the tested extracts, the Discussion: These findings underscore the therapeutic potential of Colombian plant extracts in treating giardiasis, particularly highlighting the novel giardicidal activity of
